Thanks for the info. I keep hoping the congress will return to Colorado, though that seems to be on a ten year cycle. I started playing go in 2011, so I missed the 2010 congress in Colorado Springs.

Get to know the people of the local clubs who ran the congress the last time...you may become instrumental in bringing it back to Colorado

That location means comfortable beds and swimming pools instead of tiny beds and dorm food. Deal me in!

Probably also means higher cost so a lot of people will be dealt out.

The
Yelp reviews do not give me particularly high expectations, although maybe they're better when your baseline is tiny beds and dorm food.

We wait for the finalized venue, then.

Shame you are not using the USS Midway Museum. The Midway had a long distinguished time in Japan (over 18years). I know I learned to play Go while stationed on her.
